These formed part of resolutions adopted as Senate debates  the 

recent spike of attacks on soft targets in parts of Nigeria.


Senate is suggesting the deployment of technology, stiffer penalties on kidnapping, banditry and insurgency , as well as using any means possible to put a stop to these heinous crimes. 


While debating a motion on the security breaches in kebbi, kwara and Niger states, Senate commended the prompt response of President Tinubu and security operatives and mandated the joint Senate committee on security to investigate observed lapses.


The lawmakers also canvassed sharing of intelligence by the US and international community in order to restore safety and peace across communities.


Senate has resolved that its leadership should also meet with the President and brief him on all resolutions adopted on the issue.
